Shadow of the Four Generations of Konoha

Chapter 223 Extra Story 2, Another Beginning of the Story

Traveling back in time and space to 20 years ago, on a night in June, the cool breeze blew away the heat of summer, bringing refreshment to the villagers of Konoha...

At the right time, the third Ninja World War officially came to an end. The major countries participating in the war retreated one after another and entered into alliances with each other, which means that the Ninja World has ushered in a short-term peace...

One night at the end of the month, a hawk from Loulan quickly cut through the sky and landed on the Konoha Intelligence Office.

After the ninja Xunteng on duty opened the information, he only felt that the situation was urgent, so he hurriedly sent the information to the office of Hokage Building.

Hiruzaru Sarutobi, the third generation, was smoking a pipe. After reading the information, he coughed a few times, and immediately an Anbu member appeared in front of him, "Call Namikaze Minato, Akimichi Choza, and Yurushi Wei."

"Hi...", the Anbe team left, and soon Minato Namikaze, Choza Akimichi, and Shiwei Yuru came to the Hokage office, and then the third generation handed the information to Minato Namikaze.

"Nani? Loulan Kingdom??" After reading the information, Namikaze Minato was slightly startled and said, "Master Third Generation, what is Loulan Kingdom?" ?

"The Loulan Kingdom is a small country in the Devil's Desert in the southwest of the Kingdom of Wind. It has no border with our country, nor has it established any diplomatic relations with our country." Hiruza Sarutobi thought for a while and replied.

At this time, Minato Namikaze had also read the content of the distress letter, and the general content was:

Six years ago, a puppet master named An Lushan suddenly appeared in Loulan Kingdom, who deceived the trust of the previous Queen Loulan with his rhetoric.

An Lushan let the queen activate the power of the dragon vein, which made him create a large number of puppet legions, and then secretly murdered the queen. Then, as a minister of Gu Ming, he killed and detained the residents of Loulan, and gradually controlled the entire Loulan.

Therefore, in order to save Loulan and the people who were harmed by Anlu Mountain, the writer hoped that Muye Village could send ninjas to rescue them, and at the end of the distress letter, he signed it as Masako.

Namikaze Minato carefully searched for the image of "Masako" in his mind, but found nothing, which means that he has no intersection with this Loulan country and Masako from Loulan country.

"Shuimen, although the Loulan Kingdom has nothing to do with the Land of Fire, the dragon veins buried underground in the country are of great importance and cannot be destroyed at will!
Otherwise, the entire ninja world will be on the verge of collapse! ", Hiruzaru Sarutobi said after pondering for a moment, "Let's go to Loulan immediately! "

"Hi..." Namakaze Minato nodded to accept this mission, then looked at Akimichi Choza and Yurushiwei, and suddenly said to Sarutobi Hiruzen: "Master Sandaime, I want to bring Hatake Kakashi with me for this mission. Casey together!"

"Huh? Is there any special reason?" Hiruzen Sarutobi raised his head and asked when he heard the name "Kakashi Hatake".

"Although Kakashi is very young, he is already a very good ninja. I believe he will not disappoint everyone!!" Namikaze Minato said solemnly.

"Hmm... alright!" Hiruzen Sarutobi thought for a while, and felt that although Kakashi was only a Chunin, his strength was extremely good, so he agreed.

So after Sarutobi's beheading Ken, Namikaze Minato, Yurushiwei, and Akido Choza came to the guard's office, found Kakashi who was queuing up to buy Ichiraku Ramen, and then quickly described the task.

"Kakashi, I'm sorry, I proposed this task on my own initiative, and you can refuse it if you think it's inappropriate." Minato Namikaze said with concern.

"It's nothing, Minato-sensei, I'm looking forward to doing missions with Minato-sensei." After Kakashi finished speaking, he walked out of the team and took Konoha's village permit from Namikaze Minato.

"Okay...then, let's go now!" Namikaze Minato was very happy, but he didn't show it on the surface. He just nodded and led the group of people away from Konoha and headed towards Loulan.

"whoosh" "whoosh" "whoosh"

Kakashi followed Namikaze Minato and the others as they shuttled quickly through the forest, but his thoughts had already flown to other places, recalling the information about Loulan:
On the border of the devil desert in the country of wind, there is a small country that is in the midst of prosperity—"Loulan"!
It is a bustling and bustling city, but it is also surrounded by countless tall buildings pointing straight to the sky, and in the center of the town there is the tallest giant tower!

The young Queen Sara of Loulan is deeply loved by the people, and people live and work in peace and harmony.

However, the weird minister An Lushan is making a terrible weapon-the puppet army!And imprisoned Queen Sara for his ambition, and enslaved the people of Loulan!

It is said that this minister named An Lushan is the puppet ninja Baizu who suddenly appeared in Loulan six years ago. He intends to seize the energy of the dragon veins in this era and endanger the five great powers!
In fact, Kakashi doesn't care about Loulan's dragon veins at all, so what if Loulan destroys the country?What's wrong with the dragon's veins being controlled by Baizu?What does it have to do with me?
Ever since his father Mosaku Hatake committed suicide and left a shadow on his young self, Kakashi didn't feel how important his companions were, he just had to complete the mission and it was OK!
"Minato-sensei, thank you for your kindness... But, it doesn't seem to be of any use to me!" Kakashi silently stared at the golden figure in front of him, with a flash of sadness in his eyes...

"Wow" "Wow"

A few strange owls in the forest were alarmed by the sudden appearance of passers-by, and burrowed into the deeper part of the forest with two strange screams.

It was already afternoon, and the sun was shining brightly. Through the layers of tree crowns, it fell on the withered leaves on the ground, giving off a pale gleam, and there was a smell of natural corruption in the air.

"Da da da" a series of footsteps sounded from the depths of the forest, it was the slight sound made by pedestrians stepping on the thick fallen leaves.

When they walked out of the forest completely and came into the bright and bright sunlight, they suddenly revealed their true faces: it was the Konoha ninja Namikaze Minato and the others.

At this time, Minato's squad formation had been adjusted as early as entering the Konoha Forest: Kakashi was moved to the last position, and Namikaze Minato was still walking in front of the team, with Yuru Zhiwei and Akimichi Choza on the left and right.

"That's Loulan!!" Namikaze Minato said after sensing that there was no one in the two kilometers nearby, pointing to the towering kingdom not far ahead.

"Minato-sensei, what should I do?" Kakashi stopped and asked.

"I have a task for you, can you do it well?" Minato Namikaze said, looking back at Kakashi.

"Hey, I will definitely work hard!" Kakashi opened his mouth to promise, trying his best to make an "OK" expression on his face.

"Okay!", Namakaze Minato whispered the mission in Kakashi's ear, and then sneaked into Loulan Kingdom with Akido Dingza and Yu Ruzhiwei one step ahead...
